When retail experiences develop, companies are actively looking for ways to improve customers' commitment and to streamline the shopping journey. Traditional assistance in the store is no longer enough to fulfill the expectations of digitally savvy consumers. To respond to this change, DPV develops a wise virtual assistant for interactive kiosks, designed to provide spontaneous, skilled and personal customer experience.
In many retail communities, customers still depend on the availability of employees for support, which can be inconsistent, time consuming and limited during rush hour. With growing store footprints and diverse product classification, shoppers often struggle to find products or real time information without manual help.
This dependence on human support results in prolonged waiting times, fragmented customer experience and operating disabilities. Store suppliers face challenges in maintaining the quality of service continuously, while employees are overwhelmed by repetitive surveys that can be automated.
Without solutions in the store, retailers put customers' frustration, low conversion rates and reduced brand loyalty. Shoppers can leave without buying due to increase or lack of product information. Meanwhile, retailers remember the opportunity to gather the customer's behavior, cross cell or insight.
As the retail competition is intensified and customers of digital origin open expectations, physical stores should be coordinated with intelligent, responsible and data driven technologies. Failure to use a smart customer support tool that virtual assistants can cause retailers being left in a market that quickly privatizes and rewards convenience.
DPV's interactive kiosk solution includes a virtual machine learning assistant that acts as a real time shopping guide. From the detection of products to the recommendation of preferences or previous acquisitions, the help interaction increases the customer experience by making it comfortable and informative. Retail sellers can also configure to address store specific use cases such as promotion guidance, loyal inquiries or policy.
The kiosk platform integrates a touch screen interface with Natural Language Processing (NLP), voice recognition and AI propeller engine. Powered by machine learning, the assistant learns from user interactions, improving over time and adapting to changing shopper behaviors. The system can be integrated with relevant awareness and data access in real time with existing point of sales (POS), Inventory and CRM systems.
Once the system is ready, the smart kiosk greets customers and provides help through speech or touch input. Users can ask questions, search for product placement, check the availability of stock and get the product's comparison immediately. The machine learning engine addresses these questions, receives relevant data from the backend system and provides reactions to the natural, conversational language. The more assistants are used, the more intelligent and accurate.

Reduce the dependence on floor staff for regular questions
